The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) has been carrying out searches at two Kolkata residential properties owned by a Trinamool Youth Congress leader in connection with its ongoing probe into cattle smuggling. The CBI, on Thursday, carried out searches at multiple locations in West Bengal including the premises of TMC leader Vinay Mishra, considered close to chief minister Mamata Banerjee’s nephew Abhishek Banerjee.
The agency has also issued a lookout circular against Mishra to prevent him from leaving the country, they said. The CBI is conducting searches at two premises of Mishra in Kolkata among other locations. The agency had arrested an alleged kingpin of the cattle smuggling racket in West Bengal and two BSF officials in connection with the case.
The agency has gone full steam on the cases related to West Bengal with Director R.K. Shukla asking the team probing Saradha and related ponzi scam to complete filing of all the FIRs before January 2021.
